I'm ok with this pick. Even if we're deep at center right now, it's not a bad problem to have. Also, Laughton is most likely 2-4 years away from being a regular at the NHL level, and as we all know the Flyers roster might not look the same by then. I would have preferred if we could trade down when we make these picks that are a bit of a stretch, but that's not always an option, you need to find a willing trade partner as well.

I wouldn't mind having Couturier-Schenn-Laughton down the middle in a couple of years (Giroux will be on Couturier's wing).

With how much better giroux got on face offs as the season went on, I would rather have schenn on his wing then schenn playing center
